Just buy it. Seriously.
If you like the Nanoha series you are obliged to get this game. End of story, no questions asked. Even if you don't understand Japanese, just play this game while looking at an English translation somewhere. Seriously, just get it.

The gameplay is simple to pick up and learn (which is good, since all the instructions are in Japanese) and quite fun.

In a nut-shell, pick your favorite magical girl (or woman. Or wolf. Or Chrono) and blast them with a barrage of magical projectiles or just close in and bash them over the head.

Simple and strangely satisfying, the game is immensely fun and quite frankly impossible to describe in words.

The game also offers insights into each character, showing their motivations, dreams and fears in a superbly done story mode. This game is solely responsible for my change in outlook on Reinforce from 'boring emo' to 'freaking hardcore awesome'

At no point at all did I feel like I was punching/blasting someone for some half-baked reason other than the developers thinking it would be cool if X fought Y.

Which is nice for a change, you know.

Seriously, I almost want to demand some kind of OVA based on this game or something. The story is full of good times.

I should also point out that even if you don't understand Japanese, the game is extremely fun and you can more or less guess from the context anyway.


To sum up, game is awesome. Buy it. Even if you don't understand Japanese that is no excuse to not buy it. JUST BUY IT!

Seriously.

Very fun game
The Limited Edition version of Battle of Aces is loaded with nice goodies. Towels are rare bonuses, and the figma of Nanoha goes with a matching Fate figma that I have, which is a main reason I bought this. Much of the rest is common bonuses, which are fun to look at.

Although knowing insufficient Japanese, the menus are simple enough and the difficulty curve is pleasant enough to make this game easy to pick up and play. Not knowing the story is a minor setback, but an imminent viewing of the series will fix that. The game is enjoyable enough to want to continue.

Good game but has space for improvement
The combat system is simple but challenging. In melee combat, it becomes a 2D fighter with a simple attack/block/throw button interface. However, when you move to long range, the game really shines. It's really gratifying to catch your enemy in a bind and blast them with a divine buster. Also, dodging and timing your attacks is vital. Transition between melee and ranged combat is very smooth and nearly unnoticeable. The individual character's are varied and fight differently.

My biggest complaint is the small cast size. Well some of it can't be helped since there just aren't that many characters to begin with. But they still could've included Yuuno and Arf. They could've even thrown in Graham's familiars if they wanted.

I hope there'll be a sequel. And if they do, then include the characters from StrikerS. The numbers and forwards would greatly help the cast size.

Magical Girls Unite! And beat the crap outta each other!
This is a fun game, with great Japanese graphics and an incredibly simple fighting system. And when I say "simple," I don't mean easy. Battles take place in the air, and provides a unique and interesting arena to do battle in. Swithing between melee and ranged attacks is distance based, and the action is smooth.

The voice acting is top notch, and the soundtrack is absolutely wonderful. If you like cute girls smacking each other around, this is a game that you will certainly enjoy.
